Newmar

What Newmar does

Newmar Power is a 50-year-old American manufacturer of DC and AC power electronics, founded in 1970 in Newport Beach, California and currently headquartered in Huntington Beach under the Mission Critical Electronics (MCE) brand portfolio. The company designs and builds power modules (12V, 24V, 48V), hot-swappable DC rack systems, Ethernet-based site power monitors, battery backups, power enclosures, and rugged outdoor UPS units. Its technology centers on reliable power conversion, distribution, battery charging, and remote monitoring for mission-critical applications where downtime is unacceptable. Newmar sells primarily through a direct phone/email sales channel and a growing distribution network, and benefits from cross-channel access via MCE sister brands (Xantrex, ASEA, Kussmaul, Purkeys, American Battery Charging).

The company serves seven primary verticals: marine, telecommunications and network, industrial and automation IoT, public safety, traffic, rail, and land mobile. The customer base ranges from cellular tower operators and telecom infrastructure buyers to first-responder communication system integrators, traffic management authorities, and commercial marine operators. Newmar's Site Power Monitor gained adoption in positive train control systems following the 2008 Chatsworth rail crash, illustrating the regulatory pull-through that has shaped the company's evolution from a marine-voltage-converter shop into a multi-vertical power electronics supplier.

Newmar generates revenue through hardware sales of its DC and AC power products, with quote-based pricing that is not publicly disclosed. In 2017 the company was acquired by Windjammer Capital and integrated into the MCE family, which has enabled product portfolio expansion (notably the 2015 Power Enclosures, 2019 Battery Backup, and 2020 Rugged AC UPS launches) and cross-brand distribution leverage. Manufacturing remains US-based with in-house machining capabilities dating to 1982.
